Rt patches that fit to kernel 4.9.61 are all patches
                              4.9.61-rt*

Is there a good reason that has to be exactly 4.9.5?

Why don't you follow the 4.9 LTS as close a s possible by upgrading to
a kernel version close to an available rt patch.

4.9.73 is from 2017-12-29, see https://cdn.kernel.org/ ,
IOW I would go with kernel 4.9.68 and patch-4.9.68-rt60

If you really want 4.9.5 you could try to do it as Fernando from CCRMA
does:

That way a patch might apply automatically with an offset or you
perhaps need to fix it manually.
